Digital present, paperless future in store for drivers
It’s no secret that our world is becoming more digital.
Computers and personal devices are important parts of our daily lives. The Internet has become our best friend, tool and resource. Digital media players like Apple TV, and streaming services offered by Netflix, Acorn TV and Amazon Prime are systematically replacing television sets and movie theatres. CDs, DVDs and record players (although a little less so with the last item due to nostalgia) are staring at the dustbin of history with sad, puffy eyes.
At the same time, our world is moving closer to a paperless society.
Many people are reading newspapers, magazines and books online and/or with e-readers like Kindle and Kobo. Email and text messaging is more popular and convenient than snail mail or faxes. Stores and restaurants print out fewer receipts than ever. Greeting cards for Christmas, Easter and other holidays arrive electronically with greater frequency than through our mail slots and/or community mailboxes, too.
